    Managed to get a couple of photos, nothing as clear as I'd have liked though, there was a slight mist and light polution is bad in Tilehurst, it shows the colour though.

    Had the same problem Rolf, got an OK shot, but don't have a big lens, so not worth showing.

    Whenever I try to photograph the moon with my digital camera it always appears misshapen for some reason. My b-i-l has a similar problem.

    I took this one back last year, using the 50-500 and the EC14 teleconverter, managed to catch a plane on the heathrow flightpath as well.
